Blackberry Crisp

This is a dessert that is assembled rather than made. I keep a few of these recipes in my file for occasions when I need something sweet that can be put together quickly. Blackberries and hazelnuts are common ingredients in Oregon. I always have them in my freezer, so this dessert is a literal no-brainer for me to execute. I've started to use English muffins to make bread crumbs. I like the coarse texture of the crumbs they produce and I always have them on hand. It took 5 minutes to assemble this dessert. It's a great family or weeknight dessert.

Would you believe I have not tasted blackberries yet! That's because it is unavailable here. But crisps are our favorite dessert, too! I usually use apples, or bananas. I'm thinking of using strawberries next time! :)

Blackberry crisps are a favorite here but I've never used English muffin crumbs -- always oats. In June, there is nothing like fresh blackberries baked into a crisp! I'll have to try the crumbs next time.

I love the idea of using the English muffins for a crisp. I actually have some that I can use, I wonder if it would work well with strawberries and pecans.. its what I have on hand. Yours looks absolutely fantastic!!
